Ben Payne, Jim Riordan and -
Lewis, of White River, Nye county, in
search of some 70-head of horses that
were stolen from them, tracked the
stock to this valley, and blinbly stumbled
into band of horse thieves, who had
camped at Cold Springs, about % miles
northeast from Hike. Payne and party
being unarmed, and therefore unpre-
pared for hostilities, beat hasty retreat
to Hike, where they secured the services
of seven men, well armed, and again
came upon the horse thieves at dusk
that evening, the 18th inst. The gang
being taken by surprise, made no resis-
lance but beat hasty retreat, leaving
S4-head of horses, blankets, cooking
utensils, etc, behind them. Payne and
party pursued them into the timbers,
when their trail was lost through the
darkness, thereby rendering further pur.

THAT SMALL EDITION.

There is very small edition Of child
hood's happy hour who makes it point
to come to a standstill right in front of
this printing shop at precisely 8 o'clock
every afternoon, in total disregard of
weather, extenuating circumstances or
anything else. lie comes merely for the
purpose of having good cry all by him
self. Having taken up his position, he
opens his mouth and begins to squall,
and continues squalling, every squali
being exactly an octave higher than its
predecessor. while the tears that fall so
copiously down his cheeks would put to
the blush the nozzle Of a large sized
watering pot. After he has squalled
till he is all squalled out, he dries his
tears and HES him homeward, very like
ly to reeuperate his strength for the
morrows ordeal. That children should
be INDUCED in their little pleasures and
recreations is but natural and right
unto which we second the motion. And
having become so accustomed to this
boy we really enjoy him more and more
every day-in fact we anxiously, and it
must be confessed, somewhat impatient.
ly. await the hour Of his approach.
Should the Advise Being, in his infinite
mercy, see fit to pluck this flower and
bear him aloft to his bright and happy
home among tie little stars-then the
marble pillars and colonades in front of
the RECORD shop would be literally
smothered in Grape.

DOWNFALL OF A coNauERoR.

1t pains US to chronicle mishap that
lately befell Harry Kingston, an old
time Bristolian, in Taylor. Harry got
drunk-he got something else, too-got
hammered. In thinking over Harry's
warlike achievements in Bristol, the fact
of his late downfall in Taylor is an
humiliating one to us, and one over
which we mourn with due decorum. 1t
is quite evident that Harry didn't have
his favorite implement of destruction
along with him, else he wouldn't have
got SO ANONYMOUSLY dealt by. During
the juicy epoch Of hostilities in Bristol.
when Greek waged war against Greek,
no more noble modern fgure-head could
have been found to represent the gladia-
tor Of ancient date than that same Harry
Kingston. In the vast arena of battle,
while the. hurting missiles of devastation
were flying about him, stood Harry
plying his stocking, with rock in it,
with such good effect, that the enemy
invariably called for quarter and hoisted
the flag of truce, for the purpose Of bear
ing off their dead. Among other great
and glorious deeds that can be accredited
to Harry was the skillful cracking Of
old Jim Leffngwells although
much grief was afterwards expressed by
Harry's more enthusiastic admirers, that
it hadn't been old Jim's head that was
cracked. The best generals, however,
get out generated, and Harry's defeat is
but in concord with that of other gen.
erals. Yet the great God Of battles,
when he consigned Harry to the tender
mercies of his adversary, must have
sighed, Involuntary, at least, in remem.
brance Of the valorous deeds of his
former protege.

A large balloon passed over this place
at about noon on Friday last. Its height,
as nearly as could be estimated, was
about two miles and its course little
south of east. The sky being cles6 at
the time. it remained visible for upward
of an hour. The appearance of this
strange wanderer Of the skies, caused a
deal of excitement, pendant on curiosity
as to where it started from and also its
destination. The entire popnlaoe Of
Phoebe, including the teachers and
pupils Vi the public schools, turned out
en- masse and gazed long and steadily at
the beautiful object so gracefully floating
under the blue dome Of heaven. The
denizens of Chinatown were fairly W lid
at the unusual spectacle They laughed,
"ky.yied," fired crackers and bombs,
while their dogs. barked. yelped and
howled, thereby adding to the general
Mongolian Internal racket. Many Of
our grown people had never seen a
balloon-none OF the children had-and
80 entraneed were they-both old and
young, at the novel sight-that il WAS
with feeling Of regret that they beheld
the balloon fade away in the distance
until it became merely black speek on
the easterly horizon and eventually dis
appear from view. Their beautifu
ethereal dream was ended and the prosey
hum-drum duties of every day life were
again before them.
Governor Stevenson has set apart and
appointed Wednesday, the 18th day Of
April, as Arhor Day Of 1887. Said day
is to be observed as legal holiday as
regards public schools, etc, The plant

promotion Of forest growth and culture,
and the adornment Of public and private
grounds, are the objects of the establish
ment Of Arbor Day.
1t is so refreshing to see an editorial
headed with Latin or French quotation.
1t shows up the editsrs profound learn

attempt to read and understand the
paper, cannot but acknowledge that they
are swimming in sea Of blissful ienor-
ance, and also the editors superiority.
What is the matter with the brass
band of late? The baritone jars the old

Colds are prevalent. Lots of barkers

THE MOTHER-iN-LAW.

low She Il Rewarded for the Services
She Renders Her Daughters Husband.
Il is a mystery which no one has yet
solved, why SO many sad jokes are
constantly being perpetrated about Il
mans mother-in-law What dreadful
crime has the unfortunate woman
committed in providing the man with
his wife that he should bear such an
undying grudge against her?
Now il it was lcomGn'S mother-in-
law who was made the butt of these
Jokes there might be grain of sense
in them: for it is the mans mother
who has it in her power TO make life a
burden to the young wife and not halt
try.
As matter of fact, a woman il
usually proud and fond of her son-in-
law if he only gives her the ghost of a
chance.
When the young couple first go to
housekeeping who is it that comes in
and with her good sense and practical
experience tides them over the rough
places?
\ mans mother-in-law.
Ii is the woman mother-in-law who
is most apt TO criticise, and who ex.
asperates the young wife by quoting.
all too frequently: MY son is used TO
having things thus and so" MY son
must have this or that for his meals. "
MY son, with his small income,
should have married prudent,
economical woman" etc.
When the first baby makes its appear
ance, as well as the successive ones,
who is it that steps in and relieves the
husband of his weary vigils, and takes
the load of care and worry off the
wife's feeble shoulders and keeps
the household machinery running
smoothly?
The mans mother-in-law.
When he and his wife plan to take
little trip together. who is it comes in
and takes charge of the house and the
children, so that they can peacefully
enjoy their holiday, with the restful
thought: Mother is there and it will
be all right?"
The mans mother-in-law.
W men there Is Sickness or trouble In
the house, who is the faithful nurse,
the wise counselor, the sympathizing
friend?
The mans mother-in-law.
And if, in the course of events, the
wife dies, who is it that usually comes
in and takes care of the children, and
keeps up the home till the bereaved
husband has time to look around and
find another wife?
4 mans mother-in-law.
And how does he reward her for all
this devotion?
BY making heartless jokes at her ex-
pense and publishing them for other
men to smoker over.
